After Rebirth, I Married the Great Demon King

Chapter 189: Chapter 189 Let Him Struggle

The college entrance examination lasted for two days and ended quickly.

Yun Shifei, meanwhile, was preparing for her senior year of high school. She now particularly cherished the time she spent with Cheng Lie.

She remembered that in the second semester of senior year, Cheng Lie was taken abroad by Cheng Guomin for medical treatment. He got better, but afterward, it was as if he became an entirely different person and left the Cheng Family.

During that time, the Cheng Family also suddenly encountered difficulties.

Everyone said it was Cheng Lie’s revenge.

Yun Shifei glanced at the boy sitting across from her. Sunlight streamed in and spilled onto his face. His skin was so pale that the blood vessels were visible. Right now, he was bowing his head earnestly as he read a book.

His eyelashes fluttered lightly, catching a subtle shard of light.

The boy’s boyishness was shedding little by little — he looked increasingly handsome.

It made sense; he was almost seventeen now.

Even so, he was still so obedient that it made her want to pat his head.

Yun Shifei pulled a candy out of her pocket and handed it to Cheng Lie, "Here, have this."

Cheng Lie lowered his gaze toward the candy, then glanced at Yun Shifei. She always treated him like a child.

But he didn’t quite like that feeling.

Still, under Yun Shifei’s expectant gaze, Cheng Lie unwrapped the candy and placed it in his mouth.

The sweet and tangy flavor spread, carrying a hint of lemon that made the summer feel significantly fresher.

The way Yun Shifei looked at him became even more affectionate.

Suddenly, Cheng Lie reached out and held Yun Shifei’s hand.

The girl’s hand was slender and soft, as if boneless; he easily wrapped it within his palm.

Yun Shifei froze as Cheng Lie held her hand.

The boy’s palm was dry yet warm, making her feel inexplicably uneasy.

She tried to withdraw her hand.

Cheng Lie tightened his grip on her hand even more.

Lie, let go of me," Yun Shifei protested, feeling her hand being held like this. Although she knew Cheng Lie didn’t understand such things, he was,
